"I'm doing splendid and you?" He answered, "I just thought I'd call and check on you. I hope you're good though. Not the usual norm of saying you're good when you're not." He teased."Yeah, I'm good," I said amidst light chuckles; I could feel my cheeks turn pink. I was feeling on top of the world. I just really wished he had now begun to see me differently now. I felt butterflies in my stomach.I wasn't happy about this crush I had on Thorne. I knew he had a woman in his life, but I, for some reason, felt what they had going on wasn't as serious as what could be between me and him. I drifted off to sleep, I opened my eyes to find that it was already morning. Hurriedly I rushed to the washroom to have my shower and get ready for work. In no time, I was done. I dashed out and found myself in the office in no time.There was a little traffic, I woke up a little later than I usually did, so I was in a hurry. I rushed into the office, racing through the hallways just to meet up. "Miss Gi

I sat there for the passing seconds, there was an awkward silence in the room. Thorn just stared into space blankly without saying a word. I could see he was drenched in his thoughts and I didn't want to interrupt."Nox is not your biological father. Don't argue with me. Just conduct a DNA test, and you'll affirm it there. Freda told me so much about your family. It seemed like she knew she didn't have a much longer time.""Nox, your uncle, in actuality, killed your parent, so he could take over all that his brother worked for." I said, about to continue when he cut in, "If this is so, then why hasn't he killed us up until now? Why did he just let us stay alive?" Thorn asked, pasting a vengeful look on his face."He needs you both and that's why he hasn't. There's a safe your parents left behind, inside that safe is contained everything he needs to overthrow you both and assume complete ownership. But he has no access to it." "Your parents had a blacksmith manufacture a special safe

"You're so beautiful, Gianna." He let out, his coarse baritone voice echoing throughout the room. "Can you... Just stop..." I said, not wanting him to stop. I was on cloud nine and I didn't want him to stop, not even for a split second."I've always wanted you. But I don't know if you've seen or noticed that." He whispered in my ears, sending intense chills down my spine. "You need... To...." I managed to let out before he bit my neck lightly.He was trying to get me aroused for something more intense, and I didn't want that to happen. I didn't want to have such a record of sleeping with my boss. I thought to myself. From nowhere, I found the strength to push him lightly off me. "We don't have to do this," I whispered, getting up."Do what? We're not doing anything..." He said, despite himself. "How?" I asked, rolling my eyes, as I arranged my shirt that was now in disarray. I arranged my hair too. I left his office immediately; I didn't want to waste any more time before things got o

The battles Jora had faced contributed a great deal to the fact that she now had to settle with Agar, who made life even more unbearable for her. I sat there, remembering vividly how exactly she told me the story, trying to distract myself from Diane, the recruit."Why can't you take my life? God? I can't communicate... I can't speak! Why do you have to keep me alive?!" She said silently, crying. She cried till she had no more tears left to cry, and she drifted off to sleep, finally.The night of that day had given way to the bright, beautiful morning which was a Tuesday, and also the day for our class presentation.They were this trio who were friends in the same grade as Jora and me. Paul was attracted to both Hannah and Doris; he, however, was also strangely attracted to Jora because of her calmness and quietness.Jora was quiet, not because she wanted to be, but because she had to be. Paul had noticed her on the first day he saw her, which happened to also be her first day at the

"Thank you." I let out. "Are you always this way? Or is this the cloak of personality you choose to put up with me?" I asked, sipping on the cup of tequila in my hand while looking at him. "I don't understand the point you're trying to make. That I'm multi-faced?" He asked, looking away."You should say multifaceted instead." He blurted, sitting up in his seat. "I know how to do and be a lot of things. That's not supposed to be a weakness is it?" He asked; I could already sense it was a rhetorical question, so I skipped that to what I was about to say. "I need your help.""I need to track down Mia. I must do that. You said you know when to be confidential; I don't know if this is one of those occasions because she did me real dirty, and I need to pay her in her coin." I said, looking pleadingly at him. "Okay... This is serious" he said."Do you mind sharing what she did to you?" He asked, "I thought you already knew." I said, "I might, but you must tell the story again. I might pick s
